Also. Just as a side note incase you use the chassis for a T-Shirt launcher or something. I'm assuming you put all the electronics in there just to show that you can. And trust me. I'm shocked you could! But as Andrew has stated why not go 3d? You have made a wonderful shelf already. Just throw some plexiglass or something similar to your deck on the chassis ontop of it and you could easliy use that. Just a thought.

The Drivetrain, I really have no clue at the moment. I'll go home and open up Solidworks and check the time it has on it. Yep, the electronics are there for show and we have used our "3d" space in the past and we usually build our electronics layout around the robot.

We ran the jaguars in the exact same configuration on a summer prototype with no issue, we only had ~1/2" of clearance from the frame rail.

Yep, the speed controllers are there for demo.

Yep, the centers for the 8wd drive are dropped and the 6wd also. I'll take a look at Solidworks today and see where it says the center is.
